Huskie Safe Line

Track the Safe Line

Did you know that you have an option for getting around campus when the Huskie Bus Line stops running? The Huskie Safe Line is a shuttle service that runs from 11 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. (the last route leaves the HSC at 5 a.m.) during late night hours. This free service is available to NIU students, faculty and staff as well as community members with disabilities.

All you need in order to ride is a valid NIU One Card or Illinois Person with a Disability Identification Card. You can even bring a guest. The shuttle ride service travels a fixed route with 35 pick-up and drop-off locations for your convenience. Look for the signs that say “Huskie Safe Line” and wait for the van at the stop. Please refer to the route schedule below.

The Huskie Safe Line is driven by the Department of Public Safety’s security guards and their goal is to provide you with a safe ride to your destination. Our security guards drive the shuttles and can easily contact the police in case you need emergency assistance.

A handicap accessible shuttle ride service is available for persons with disabilities and individuals with children by calling 815-753-2222 to request the service.
